Cash savings flow between accounts

Post by Mentodroid » Thu Aug 30, 2018 11:46 pm

Hi everyone,
Please advise on the following situation:
My wife is applying for entry clearance and we are relying on her savings only. She's had enough savings sitting in her bank for more than 6 months. However, initially it was in local currency (KZT), but a couple of months ago she opened another USD account in the same bank and converted a significant portion from the KZT account into the USD account. At no point in the last 6 months was she below needed level of savings if both accounts are considered.

Does her situation violate savings requirements for the UK spouse visa? Any thoughts would be highly appreciated.

If the required amount of savings relied upon wasnt present for atleast 6 months prior to application date then the 6 months is reset. In your case you will need to wait to reach 6 months in the new account
